After watching the ship’s carpenter make beautiful surface finishes with their hand plane, I decided to try one for building magnetic fabric hangers.

@nyrath swanjolras's tumblr post and Safire's "In event of Moon disaster" are the two easiest ways to make me tear up. Every. Single. Time.

What's your favorite mobile #retrocomputing form factor?

@thomasfuchs the "slate" form-factor of the TRS-80 Model 100 is my favorite since it is the only one that is really portable, plus they make decent xterms.

Our return flight from Tokyo to Amsterdam had to detour towards Alaska due to the closure of Russian airspace, which provided amazing scenery from the window seat. During the 14 hour flight we saw polar ice at 80°N, glaciers across northern Greenland, and icebergs in the Norwegian sea.

@foone did you ever see the YotaPhone? It was a normal Android mobile on one side, but if you flipped it over the screen would mirror onto a very fast e-ink display.

@jwz some “Fallout” CRTs look like proper cathode ray tubes with continuous raster lines, so maybe different effects teams on different shots?
